PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The POWERLOGIC EGX is an Ethernet-based device that provides a transparent
interface between Ethernet-based networks and field devices. Field devices include
meters, monitors, protective relays, PLCs, trip units, and other devices that
communicate using MODBUS, JBUS or POWERLOGIC protocol.
The EGX uses MODBUS/TCP protocol to access power monitoring information across
a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN). This capability allows the
use of power monitoring software to access information from devices for data
collection, trending, alarm/event management, harmonic analysis, and other functions.
The two basic models are:
EGX200. This unit is an Ethernet (Modbus/TCP) to serial gateway. Serial protocols
include MODBUS RTU, SY/MAX, and POWERLOGIC. It has one twisted pair
Ethernet port (UTP/STP) and two serial ports. One serial port is RS-485. The second
serial port is configurable for RS-232 or RS-485.

EGX400. In addition to the functionality of the EGX200, the EGX400 has a 100 Mb
fiber optic Ethernet port and nonvolatile memory. Users can store custom web pages
to view real time data and other information from the connected devices. See the
EGX400 reference guide for details.
Both EGX models have web server functionality that let you remotely configure and
troubleshoot both Ethernet and serial communication parameters. A typical application
example is shown in Figure 11.

DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURN, OR EXPLOSION
Only qualified workers should install this equipment. Such work
should be performed only after reading this entire set of instructions.
NEVER work alone.
Before performing visual inspections, tests, or maintenance on this
equipment, disconnect all sources of electric power. Assume that all
circuits are live until they have been completely de-energized, tested,
and tagged. Pay particular attention to the design of the power
system. Consider all sources of power, including the possibility of
backfeeding.
Turn off all power supplying the equipment in which the EGX is to be
installed before installing and wiring the EGX.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that
power is off.
Beware of potential hazards, wear personal protective equipment,
and carefully inspect the work area for tools and objects that may
have been left inside the equipment.
The successful operation of this equipment depends upon proper
handling, installation, and operation. Neglecting fundamental
installation requirements may lead to personal injury as well as
damage to electrical equipment or other property.
Failure to observe these instructions will result in death or serious
injury.

Port-to-Port Communication
The EGX allows port-to-port communication. A Modbus RTU master on one serial port
can communicate to serial devices on the other serial port of the same EGX. See

Ethernet LEDs
A yellow LED illuminates when the EGX is receiving data (RX) and a green LED
illuminates when data is transmitted (TX). A third light, link (LK), illuminates yellow
when there is a proper Ethernet connection. On the EGX400, the two Ethernet ports
share one set of LEDs because only one Ethernet port can be used at a time.

3. For the Language, select the desired language from the pull-down menu.
4. Log into the EGX using one of the four defined passwords, and then click Log In.
See Password Administration on page 38 for more information.
NOTE: The default password is admin (all lower case). For system security, if you
are the administrator, we recommend that you change the administrator password
at this time (see Password Administration on page 38).
The EGX Home page displays. The list of available options depends on the level of
access assigned in the password administration option.

Figure 52 shows the Communications Settings page, where you can change
Ethernet and serial communications parameters. After changing values, you must click
the Update button for changes to take effect.
NOTE: If you make changes to the Ethernet parameters and click Update, the EGX will
reset for the settings to go into effect. Because of this reset, you must log in to the EGX
again by typing the IP address into the address field of your web browser and pressing
Enter.

Device List
Figure 53 on page 36 shows the Device List page, in which serial devices can be
identified. Keep in mind the following points when setting up the Device List:
For COM 1 daisy-chain devices:
MODBUS/JBUS devices do not have to be defined in the COM 1 column of the
Device List, although it is recommended to help you manage your system.
POWERLOGIC protocol (SY/MAX) devices must be defined in the COM 1 column
of the Device List.
For COM 2 daisy-chain devices:
All MODBUS/JBUS and POWERLOGIC devices must be defined in the COM2
column of the device list.
NOTE: Each COM port device list column must be configured (completed) and updated
independently. If both COM1 and COM2 device list columns are filled in and the Update
button is pressed on COM1 only, the parameters or entries for COM1 will be saved and the
new entries for COM2 will be lost.
To set up the Device List, follow these steps:
1. In the COM 1 column, enter the device Address and Protocol type of each attached
device on the daisy chain.
2. Click Update COM 1.
3. In the COM 2 column, enter the device Address and Protocol type of each attached
device on the daisy chain.
4. Click Update COM 2.
For more information on setting up the Device List, refer to the list of notes and
Table 53 on page 36.

NOTES:
Do not assign address 16 to any MODBUS or JBUS device if you have a mixedmode daisy chain (for example, a single daisy chain with some RS-485 devices
using POWERLOGIC protocol and others using MODBUS/JBUS protocol).
Do not assign address 1 to any POWERLOGIC protocol device on a mixed-mode
daisy chain (for example, CM2000, CM100, CM200, 810-D, PIF85, PIF3, Digital
Relay, and POWERLINK AS).
Do not use the same address for any slave devices on the two EGX COM ports.
We recommend that you wire and connect all MICROLOGIC trip units to COM 1.
(Please refer to the MICROLOGIC Trip Unit instruction bulletin for proper
addressing.)
By default, the device list page displays 16 slots per port to define devices. For
information on increasing the number of devices in the Device List page, see
Advanced Setup on page 40.

Diagnostics
Figure 54 shows the Diagnostics page, which displays diagnostic data and may be
helpful in troubleshooting network problems. This page also contains information about
your specific EGX, including the serial number, manufacturing date, and Media Access
Control (MAC) address. Pressing Reset clears all cumulative counters.
NOTE: This page will show accumulated readings since the EGX was last activated. If
power to the EGX is lost, all values reset to zero.

Password Administration
Figure 55 shows the Password Administration page. There are four password
controlled accounts: one administrator password account and three user password
accounts. Passwords can be up to eight alpha characters. The default passwords
assigned to user accounts are:
master

operator

User Account
The default access levels for all user accounts are shown in Figure 55. The
administrator can grant one of three access levels for each web page to each user:
None, Read Only, and Full.
Up to 10 concurrent users can be logged into the EGX at any given time, using any
combination of passwords. The administrator can configure the amount of time the
EGX waits during an inactivity period before expiring access (see Advanced Setup
on page 40).
We recommend that you return to the EGX home page and select Log Out when
finished interfacing with the EGX; doing so immediately releases that access privilege
for another user.
The administrator can disable the password for any page. Disabling security for a page
allows users to bookmark the page for quick access without going through the Login
page.
Table 54 summarizes password accounts, default passwords, conventions, and
access levels.
